ESA points system

Hi, been in support group for just over a year. Feb 2011 completed ESA50 (OLD), sent for medical, moved from support to WRAG. Have copy of medical report but have no idea about how many points I may have for anything. Should I have? I have sent the appeal form but said reasons to follow as at time had not had medical report. I have M.E. Thanks

It should be at the back of the report on two pages, one for the physical tests and one for the mental ones.

I've looked at mine and the pages in question do not appear to have a form reference number.

If it is missing, try contacting the DWP again.

The only time I ever got scored and asked for a copy there was a lot of working out which had been crossed out and re added till they came up with a number they liked

Thanks. I've now checked the medical report but there are no points to be seen. I have asked about points in several phone calls to ESA Dept but got no joy. will try again tomorrow.

Hi Rexy

It does appear that ATOS do not want claimants to know how many points they scored in the WCA.

Please see the post below, which explains how to work out from the descriptors the number of points scored.

Unless you 'fail' and then they love to tell you!
